Hi, My gf's Audi Slips Only when Its cold. I don't mean Cold weather or cold engine, I mean when the transmission is cold Once it Drives for aprox. 8 blocks the car Runs fine. Letting the car warm up before driving wont help. It has to be driven slowly for the first mile. The car wont shift out of 1st gear Until transmission is warm. Anybody know what can be the problem? Any recomendations?
The car is a 96 Audi A4 non-quattro V6 2.8L With 150k miles
I bought it from This guy that had it stored in his garage for 2 years (CV shaft was gone but I replaced it, I also replaced the struts)
Thanks.
Victor.

Hello Fuzz, Thanks for the Reply,
I haven't Check the fluid. I was thinking about Check/Replace Fluid and filter(s) but I couldn't Find the dipstick, Then I did some research and I found out That I have to unscrew a "check screw" At the side of the transmission pan. And a special pump is needed fill the fluid. I also heard that Audi dealers recommend never to replace the fluid and also read that In some cases, Replacing the fluid Might worsen the problem. That's why I decided to post my question before doing something To it, maybe someone else out there had the same problem and found the solution.
I guess checking the trans fluid wont hurt it I'll just need the right tools to do that.
What would you Recommend?
Thanks.
Victor.
